    A/C clutch relay location?

    84 SVO, can't get a/c clutch to engage because both wires have 12v all the time regardless of dash control position. Low pressure switch is jumpered while testing. Trying to locate the a/c clutch...

    What wideband is it?

    Typically they just go from working normal to readings being way off while the engine feels like it's running the same. It's impossible for the sensor to work "some of the...

    Diamonds don't come with rings at that price. They also use the stock ring pack size which is very limited for high quality turbo spec rings.

    Just remember pistons (and the rings for them) are two...

    Since you've already reset the quadrant, all you need to do is adjust the firewall adjuster. This will change where the clutch engages.

    That's typical behavior for a stuck/dirty IAC solenoid, though high TPS voltage will occasionally cause a similar problem.

    You're correct, the H trim is a surge monster on a 2.3 engine. Not a good option that's for sure.

    To adjust it, you just loosen the mounting screws and rotate the TPS. This changes the closed throttle voltage. You need to target .9-1.0v at idle.

    If you're flowing enough air to have wastegate flow issues, I think it would be foolish to use a .48 housing as it will leave a lot of power on the table, especially with a high rpm cam.

    34%, plus an additional 10-20% more flow from the short side radius into the port and it will certainly help at minimum, or even fix it.

    That's a weird one. Certainly won't hurt to port the WG hole and smooth the entrance side significantly to force exhaust through the hole, though it doesn't look like a setup that should "need" this,...

    This is only an issue when using a "normal" single piston BOV. If you use a dual piston BOV (like we have on our site) that is designed for metered-air cars (MAF, VAM) then there are no driveability...

    I agree, I can't fathom any way it overboosts (and at a reasonable rpm) with a stock type turbo and the gate wired open. You must have wired it shut rather than open. You need to push the wastegate...

    While you can safely rev it to the limiter, stock 2.3's accelerate the quickest when shifted no higher than 5400. Peak power is typically 5200 or so.

    Downshift, then floor it...or just floor it at a higher rpm and you won't have any "lag" to speak of. You can't drive them like a v8.

    You shouldn't see any boost below 4000 rpm and maybe 2psi or so at redline with the gate wired open.

    The tailpipes vs turndown are the biggest thing that makes the first setup quiet and the second loud. Turn downs = loud in the car.

    Neat read! It's interesting to hear them talk about carbon fiber and composites as such "new" stuff when it is so prevalent today. Clearly it didn't work out the way they thought it would.

    What happens if you unhook the actuator from the wastegate arm and then wire the arm all the way open? If you still get too much boost, that would mean you have a wastegate flow issue.
